His first, the railroads, born under the Kemalist has become a sturdy and child, able to stand on its own legs. The Turkish Navy was no more than a neme until Ismet Pasha turned his eagle eye in that direction. A bigger | and stronger navy is now the cry in | Turkey. An increase of $1,000,000 in |the 1931-1932 budget will make this | possible. | " "The Ismet cabinet has already started {to work in earnest. The Yavouz, the | ex-Goeben of World War fame, was ‘mnrougmv repaired and a modern dock | built for her. The Yavouz constitutes | Turkey's chief naval power. Two sub- | marines, constructed in Holland, have been added, and four destroyers, two more submarines and three gunboats | have been ordered from Italy, but have not yet been delivered. Although the Turkish Republic fol- faithftilly a peace policy, her | frontlers are not neglected. The a under the republic, was thoroughly organized; so well, in fact, that, forced | to economize, the government dictated | a $4,500,000 cut for the forces. The air |line was also created by the Kemalists; | before the Republic, Turkey had & few nirplnne< that were of no use. But a | strong army and air force were not | deemed enough for a country which boasts of a 3,000-mile coast line. Sooner or later Turkey had to think of her neglected navy. Strategy of Mchmed II. | The Turkish fleet, once the terror of | Europe and the master of the Mediter- ranean, had very humble beginnings. Thirty-five years after the foundation of the Ottoman Empire (1299) a few | miserable rafts were constructed which | enabled the Turks to cross from Asia | to Europe. This was the first Turkish | fleet. The years that followed in no way improved the primitive rafts. In the middle of the fifteenth century Mehmed II, hook-nosed, eagle-eyed ruler of Turkey, decided to conquer | Constantinople and build a vast empire. ! Then the need of a fleet came to the | fore. Mehmed ordered many ships to | be built, each carrying big guns. Early one morning white sails on a | background of blue dawned before the | Queen City and a terrified people. Con- stantine, last Emperor of Byzantium, | ordered the chains to be drawn across the Golden Horn 0 as to keep out the | enemy. When Mehmed drew near with his fleet he saw that his ships could not pass the chains, and his hopes of bombarding the city from the sea fell Undaunted, the Sultan withdrew to think over a plan. A few weeks later, when the Greeks opened their_eyes at daylight they saw the Turkish fieet within the Golden Horn and the chains still barring the en- trance. Amazed, they rubbed their eyes, but the ships were real and the’gung were menacing the city. When Mehmed | had seen the chain across the Golden ! Horn he had decided to resort to strategy. He sailed away as if dis- couraged. Then his soldiers occubied | hill overlooking the Golden Horn. In dead of the night the sailboats wer ed ashore. Then a wooden chut constructed from the hill to the! a. This was generously greased and the boats slid down one by one. Con- stantinople was doomed and soon fell into the hands of the Turks. | Pirate Made Admiral. | The name of Barberousse Haireddin | can never be separated from the history | of the Turkish fleet. Barberousse, great satlor and famous pirate, soon became | | the terror of the Mediterranean. He had conquered Algeria and Tunis with | his handful of followers. Sultan Selim, | called the great Yavouz, realized the | value of this man and called him to | Constantinople to head the Turk'sh | Navy. Barberousse came, bringing with | him’ two provinces and ‘rich presents. Under Suleiman the Magnificent, he was made grand admiral and given free | | hand with the navy, so that the Turkish | | ficet became peerless. Barberousse added | | one victory after another to his fame: his most famous was over the Venetian | admiral, Andre d'Oria. For a century, | the Turkish fleet was supreme and the | Mediterranean in the hands of the Turks. Gradually the fleet went into decline, | especially under Sultan Hamid in the | | nineteenth century. ~Hamid, afraid of | {his own shadow, did his best to ruin | | the navy. He had an idea that the | | battleships would point their guns at his palace and bombard it. Thus re- | | duced. the Turkish Navy never recover | ed. During the Balkan war, Turkey | suffered ignominous defeat at the hands | of the Greeks. Now the Turkish fleet | is beginning to arouse from its torpor. | And if Ismet Pasha keeps up his work of reconstruction, Turkey soon will have the nucleus of a small, but well organ- ized, navy.
